Description Matt Heitz

Some operators from RBD are missing: substring and dynamic access.

New operators for EDT need to be added: <<, >>, >>>, ~, and the ternary if-then-else.  ~ is a unary operator.

Operation.NULL_CONCAT has the wrong value.  It's set to "?::".  Remove the second colon.

This one is really important, blocking some of my work defining the types.

Paul, I changed my mind about array access.  We should have an operator for it too.

Comment 3 Matt Heitz

I just fixed the value of Operation.NULL_CONCAT and added the following fields:
	String ARRAY_ACCESS = "[]";
	String SUBSTRING = "[:";
	String DYNAMIC_ACCESS = "['";

In org.eclipse.edt.mof.egl, ArrayAccess, DynamicAccess, and SubstringAccess now have a getOperation() method.  They each use a method called resolveOperation(), to be implemented by Paul.

I also added an operation field to those three types in Expressions.egl .

The new operators <<, >>, >>>, ~, and the ternary if-then-else will not be included in 0.7 so they won't be implemented under this bug.  We'll open a new bug for them when the time comes.

This is done.
